Apple knows that. In the past years folks who can't (at work, in class, etc.) or don't want to watch the crappy live stream would follow the various WWDC liveblogs presented by tech sites like Gizmodo, TechCrunch, Ars Technica, etc. But this year the landscape has changed: Apple rolled its own card-based liveblog at [www.apple.com/live/2015-june-event](http://www.apple.com/live/2015-june-event/).[^stream] Not only that; during the keynote, Apple redirected its homepage to the liveblog page, so it effectively turned its homepage into a liveblog: - -[^stream]: The crappy live stream is still there, but thankfully you wouldn't see it if you're on a browser other than Safari. Just look the screenshot of the banner. - -```zsh -> curl -sSIL http://www.apple.com -HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily -Location: http://www.apple.com/live/ -Content-Length: 210 -Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 -Expires: Mon, 08 Jun 2015 19:16:41 GMT -Cache-Control: max-age=0, no-cache, no-store -Pragma: no-cache -Date: Mon, 08 Jun 2015 19:16:41 GMT -Connection: keep-alive -Server: Apache - -HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently -Content-Length: 0 -Date: Mon, 08 Jun 2015 19:16:41 GMT -Connection: keep-alive -Server: Apache -Location: http://www.apple.com/live/2015-june-event/ - -HTTP/1.1 200 OK -Last-Modified: Mon, 08 Jun 2015 15:45:30 GMT -ETag: "0b7bcbfbd14c411e64e728ae4d644de7" -Content-Type: text/html -Cache-Control: max-age=298 -Date: Mon, 08 Jun 2015 19:16:41 GMT -Connection: keep-alive -Server: Apache -``` - -Of course, you miss a few jokes and random shots of Tim or Craig from the official liveblog, but hey, who don't like that official feel?[^official] - -[^official]: Yeah, I know some people don't; but those people are not likely to be Apple fans either. - -Here are a few screenshots of today's liveblog.
